• Pixelorama v1.2.2 is out! - 9 September 2026

  Artwork by Momo, one of the artists for v1.2's splash screen artworks.Greetings everyone! We have another Pixelorama update for you! Today we are releasing version 1.2.2 to the world, and with it we bring a highly requested feature, a new dedicated gradient tool! Not only that, but you can now also export Pixelorama projects as Aseprite files, instead of just being able to import them.We also fixed a quite serious bug, which made keyframe IDs conflicting with already existing keyframes when loading a pxo file. If you load a pxo file that has keyframes, you will unfortunately have to re-create them in order for it to work correctly, otherwise when you try to select, move, delete etc a keyframe, other keyframes will also receive the same operation, due to ID conflicts. Moreover, we re-wrote some of the code of the layer effect system to massively improve the performance of stacked effects…

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.Full changelog of version 1.2.1:AddedExporting images as SVG files is now possible.

• Pixelorama v1.2, new possibilities for pixel art - 29 July 2026

  Artwork by Kellay, one of the artists for v1.2's splash screen artworks.We are happy to announce that the newest version of Pixelorama, 1.2, is finally here! This is another major update, with a lot of new features that can completely change your workflow and haven't been seen in traditional pixel art editing before. It is genuinely exciting to bring something new to the pixel art world, and we hope the community loves these features as much as we do!IMPORTANT: Compatibility breaking changesUnfortunately, every now and then, if we want to move forward and improve, some things have to be remade, leading in compatibility breaking changes.Breaking change #1:Due to the 3D layer remake mentioned below, the 3D layer data of pxo files is NO LONGER COMPATIBLE between v1.2 and older versions. The pxo files themselves should load just fine, but the 3D layers will be EMPTY. If you have existing pr…

More info here: #1417Autotiling support for tilemap layers. A new tool has been added for tilemap layers that allows users to set the autotiling bits on each tile, similar to how Godot's TileSet terrain editor works. On…

  Hello everyone, we are alive! I know we haven't had a new update in months, but we have been quietly working on the next version, v1.1.9, as well as the next major version, v1.2.

This turned out to be quite a big update, with some new features, quality of life improvements and a series of bug fixes and performance enhancements.Important: Regarding the Android versionWhen we published version 1.1.7, we also released an experimental Android version.

There is a possibility that future restrictions could make it harder to distribute apps outside of centralized…

• Pixelorama v1.1.3 is out! - 6 August 2025

  Pixelorama v1.1.3 is here! 🎉 Mostly a maintenance release, containing a lot of important bug fixes, but it also comes with a few new features. The most significant change in this update is the fact that the tilemap layer system has been refactored behind the scenes, which affects the behavior of isometric tiles. Make sure to keep backups of your old projects if they contain isometric tiles. Full changelog of version 1.1.3: Added Implemented limited support of Photoshop (.psd) file importing. Added ability to edit individual tiles in tilemap layers even in place only mode. Added support for batch removal of unused tiles in tilemap layers. Added a way to re-apply the last image effect from the Effects menu. Clicking a palette swatch with the left/right color now directly adds the color to that swatch. You can now remove colors from palette swatches by holding Control while clicking on th…

• Pixelorama v1.1.1 is out! - 6 May 2025

  Say hello to Pixelorama v1.1.1! 🎉 This is a minor update, mostly containing bug fixes, but it also has some shiny new features. The most notable new feature is the support of isometric & hexagonal tile shapes for tilemap layers! YouTube channel We have made a brand new YouTube channel for Pixelorama! This channel will be used for tutorials, feature showcases, and perhaps even some devlogs. We have a lot of ideas on videos we could make, so please stay tuned and subscribe. The first video is now live, you can watch it here: Changes to the splash screen artwork event The splash screen artwork event for version 1.1 had a very low amount of entries compared to past events. The way it currently works is that before we release a new major version, such as 1.0 and 1.1, we announce a time period (usually around a month) where everyone can draw an artwork made with Pixelorama, and they can subm…

• Pixelorama v1.1 is out! - 28 March 2025

  Pixelorama v1.1 is here, bringing a lot of game-changing new features! 🎉 This release introduces highly anticipated additions like tilemap layers, audio layers, indexed mode, a brand new text tool, and much more! The journey to implement these features in such a short time has been challenging, but your incredible support has kept us going. We’re thrilled to keep improving Pixelorama with the help of this amazing community. Here is an overview of the biggest changes in this version. Tilemap layers It is now possible to create tilemaps in Pixelorama, in the form of tilemap layers. Tilemap layers are a special type of pixel layer which use a tileset, and each cell of the grid has a reference to a tile from that tileset. Tilemaps are usually used when designing levels for games. Tilemap layers have a draw tiles mode which, when enabled, allows you to directly modify tiles on the canvas. Y…

• Pixelorama v1.0.5 is out! - 18 November 2024

  Greetings everyone, a new Pixelorama version just dropped today! Version 1.0.5 is here with some nice fixes and a few new features. While we have been working on this update, we have also been preparing the next big version, v1.1 at the same time! If all goes well, it will be the next update after this one, and it will contain some huge new features, such as a text tool and the long awaited indexed mode! Stay tuned for more information soon. Full changelog of version 1.0.5: Added Add density to the square & circle brushes. 100% density means that the brush gets completely drawn. Anything less leaves gaps inside the brush, acting like a spray tool. Selection expanding, shrinking and borders have been added as options in the Select menu. Mouse buttons can now be used as menu shortcuts. Added confirm and cancel buttons in the selection tool options to confirm/cancel an active transformatio…

• Pixelorama v1.0.4 is out! - 25 October 2024

  Greetings and salutations friends! A new Pixelorama update arrives today, and with quite a lot of goodies this time! Probably the biggest new feature of them all is the ability to make panels into floating windows! To use this feature, you first have to enable “Moveable panels” from the Window menu, tabs will appear on top of every panel. On the right side of these tabs, you will have a menu with a single option - “Make floating”. Click on that and the panel will become its own window. Close the window to turn it back into a panel. If you have “single window mode” disabled from the preferences, the windows will also be able to be placed outside of Pixelorama’s main window, which can be pretty useful for multi-monitor setups! Another important new feature is the new “Color replace” mode of the Shading tool. This mode allows you to choose colors from a palette as lights or shadows, simila…

• Pixelorama v1.0.3 is out! - 13 September 2024

  Hello everyone, new Pixelorama version today! Just like the previous minor versions, this one also contains important bug fixes, but it comes with a few new features and improvements as well! Among the new features is a new layer effect called Index Map, contributed by Variable. This effect makes the original red and green color values of the image act as x and y positions of a separate image (the map), and the result uses colors from the map based on the red and green color values from the source images. This allows you to change the colors of the map, and the changes get automatically applied to the source project. This can allow you to use techniques such as this: To explain how this new effect works, Variable has even prepared a video! Full changelog of version 1.0.3: Added Added new global layer buttons that change visibility, lock or expand all layers on the first level. Added a n…

• Pixelorama v1.0.2 is out! - 21 August 2024

  Hello everyone! Here’s another release for Pixelorama, containing some important fixes and improvements, as well as a few new features! The highlight of this update is that group layer blending is now supported! Layers that belong to the same group are now being blended together into a single texture, which represents the entire group. Layers outside the group are not affecting the group’s blended texture. This has several advantages: Group layers can have their own blend modes. A new “passthrough” mode has also been added that does not blend the children of the group together, as if the group doesn’t exist. Group layers can both act as a clipping mask and be used by a clipping mask. Group layers and cels now have their own opacity. Group layer effects are no longer being applied recursively to each of its children, but instead they are being applied once in the final blended texture. T…

• Pixelorama v1.0.1 is out! - 5 August 2024

  Hello everyone! It's been a week since version 1.0 came out. We hope you have been enjoying Pixelorama so far! To ensure that you do, we just released version 1.0.1, which contains some bug fixes and performance improvements. NOTE: If after updating Pixelorama still says that its version is v1.0-stable and not v1.0.1-stable, go to the Preferences and just toggle "Single window mode" on and off. This is an one time bug and will not happen in future updates again. Full changelog of version 1.0.1: Added Added an image effect that lets you adjust color properties of the image, such as brightness and contrast. It is now possible to toggle low processor usage mode in the Preferences (called "Update continuously"). Changed It is no longer possible to click outside of a dialog to close it. Animation tag importing can now open from the frame button right-click menu. The previews of the elliptica…
